What we’ve got going on in this country and in too much of the world is a situation where we care more about money, power, profit and things than about people. Unless we can turn that picture inside out, we’re going to suffer as we are now suffering.

From unaffordable essentials to corrupt politicians, from unjustifiable wars to ruined roads, from a lack of health care to business caring only about the bottom line, the root is the same: selfishness and indifference.

It says in the Bible we can’t worship both God and Mammon. Interesting that from the White House on down, we call ourselves a Christian nation. What Bible are we reading? The Wall Street Journal translation?
